Kita ze Inbou! - キタぜ陰謀!

[Night 9: The Dark Law Chapter - With Force and Tenderness]

With Aoi now identified as the Bodhisattva Eye, what will await our heroes in the future?

I’m hurting along side of my dear Komaki. She still seems to be very sick from the previous episode. The thought and sight of her old friend’s dead body is really taking a toll on her. So much so that her archery skills are almost nil and she can’t even seem to tap into her powers. For most of the episode she’s a complete emotional wreck (she even slapped away the bento that Daigo made for her during one of her breakdowns). As a result of this, even Daigo is down for the count and unable to fight properly.

Thank goodness though, they both recover near the end of the episode. Komaki receives some help and cheering up from both Kyouichi and Daigo (who of course states his resolve to Komaki that he’ll be the one to protect her always). Tatsuma goes to visit Aoi to talk with her. Aoi decides to reveal a scar she received from her past which involves the flashback of the fire we’ve seen a few times already. Komaki arrives right in time at the end of the episode to help her friends with an enemy whose power has gone insane. After they defeat her, it seems as if she’s dead but somehow Aoi manages to revive her. That power caught me off guard to be honest. However, this seems to be connected to the Bodhisattva Eye. Which Kodzune wants and has identified as being Aoi. This definitely means trouble for Aoi and the others in the future.

I wonder who that girl was in the beginning of the episode that met with Tatsuma though….
